Global Survey Finds Growing Hope in Church
Faith Facts
- Church leaders worldwide report renewed optimism for mission in 2025.
- Five key drivers for advancing the gospel are collaboration, discipleship, digital outreach, marketplace ministry, and youth engagement.
- The wealthy remain the least reached group for the gospel across all regions.
Church leaders from 119 countries have expressed fresh hope and confidence that God is working in diverse and surprising ways. Their testimonies remind us that the global Church is one family, united in faith and purpose.
Paul wrote, “If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honoured, every part rejoices with it.”
The Lausanne Movement’s survey invites Christians everywhere to listen, learn, and engage with pressing challenges such as digital evangelism and equipping leaders for rapid change. Collaboration across cultures and generations stands as a testimony to Christian unity and commitment to the Great Commission.
The findings urge us to boldly reach those most overlooked, including the wealthy and urban, and to shape ministry that is faithful to biblical truths amid modern challenges. Let us stand together in faith, prayer, and action to strengthen the Church’s witness worldwide.
Be encouraged—God is moving across the nations, and each believer is called to play a part.
